[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be furious at my husband too OP.

There are certain mistakes that just shouldn’t be made, even once.
Leaving a gas stove on all night is one of them.

When if for instance your husband left a candle 🕯 on overnight and your entire house burned down because the candle was too close to a curtain, etc.
Even if it only happened ONCE - his carelessness would still be infuriating.
Same if I accidentally hit a parked car while backing up.

Considering you have a baby in the home, your husband should definitely have been much more careful.[/quote]

If I accidentally hit a parked car and my husband was then “furious” with me, we would have a hard time.  His fury would be uncalled for, and I wouldn’t tolerate being the brunt of that.  Everyone makes mistakes.  It’s one thing to point out a mistake, or to continually make the same mistake - but to launch into fury over one regretted incident is not only pointless but also hurtful.[/quote]

Ahhh. The “mistake” of hitting stationary objects. Yes. [/quote]

And anger with someone over a mistake is useless and offensive especially when directed at another competent adult.[/quote]

If you read the thread - part of the problem is that the husband was all NBD about it. People make mistakes but adults need to own it and reassure others that they will be more careful in the future. [/quote]
